The British rock band "The Sweet," also known as "Sweet," rose to worldwide fame in the 1970s as one of the leading "Glam Rock Acts" of its era. This movement introduced a decade of fresh styles and new horizons for both music and fashion, contributing to a sexual revolution that embraced a permissive attitude in Western society. Sweet's influence is recognized across numerous genres, from Boy George to Kiss, Poison, and Guns N' Roses, for revolutionizing music and fashion forever.
The band achieved significant success with 39 number-one singles globally, including "Ballroom Blitz," "Fox On the Run," "Love Is Like Oxygen," "Little Willy," "No You Don’t," "Blockbuster," "Action," "Teenage Rampage," and "AC/DC," among many others.
Decades later, the late founder Steve Priest emerged from retirement to curate his vision of how he wished to preserve and present his legacy. Upon hearing drummer Richie Onori and keyboardist Stevie Stewart, he was convinced that he had discovered the ideal chemistry to proceed respectfully and honorably in memory of his fallen comrades. Together, they enlisted two additional top-tier musicians capable of delivering the same intensity and expertise as the original lineup. Currently, Stevie and Richie's talented lineup features lead vocalist Ari Kamin, guitarist Jimmy Burkard, and keyboardist Dave Schulz.
As Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses acknowledged during an interview on the Jimmy Kimmel show, he credited two bands that influenced him the most during his youth: "Sweet" and "Queen." That sentiment speaks volumes, does it not?
